It's not only Rengar, SV was already stupidly powerful on him because it had everything he likes, kinda like Mundo but better since Rengar scales way harder off of cdr, but now that it's buffed it's even more bonkers.

another brilliant example of why rengar should be deleted from the game... Somehow every time I see him picked, I know this game is going to be absolute trash...

Also brilliant decision making by dignitas. instead of letting ezreal farm up for the lategame they give a destroyed kogmaw free farm to get back into the game...

ok I think I get it.

by using Wriggles and Wits, you get your IE/aspd/lifesteal combo significantly earlier basically giving Kog a mid-game power curve to match their strat of pushing the shit out of mid.

WoDx now showing even more brokent han BC Olaf: BC Riven. Featuring 100-0 combos, and the effect of cdr on Riven. That was just a constant stream of skills and BC stacks and nukes after he got a blue buff from a kill, 30+% cdr legit crazy on her.

Tank rengar definitely fits HSGG's old playstyle better than his tank Cho that I always hated watching

But why Wriggle's over Cutlass, which is only a little more expensive and actually good for him.

IDK what DL's goals were with that Kog build but champion DPS was not one of them. IE + Wit's is pretty bad. If he wanted mres + DPS he could have grabbed negatron + DPS item or hexdrinker. On-hit Kog is still weaker than a traditional ADC build but combining the two just gives you bad results. I just don't know WTF he was doing but whatever it was it didn't matter much given how the game was going.

IE just doesn't work with wit's that way and a vamp scepter provides just as much lifesteal as wriggles. That explanation still doesn't make sense. It's more likely he went wriggles for the armor vs EZ and the free ward for farming solo.

Because it's easier to build (smoother buying curve) and gives him armor against Ezreal's brutalizer. Eventually helped against Nash probably too.

Haha, Dyrus playing Singed talking with Chaox about items. Has his shop window open and gets a triple kill.

I'm so confused right now, I just watched Hotshot build more sensible items than Doublelift. Also Jiji won mid lane.

I just don't understand how Rengar was left alone with his heal. Riot has had issues with mana-less champions with essentially free heal(Vlad), and they end up making the same type of skill again. It's a really odd choice considering how adamant a lot of them are about how broken Vlad is. Then there's also a point that they should have seen some of these problems occurring considering how well CDR generally works with mana-less champs. I don't understand at all.

Rengar's heal should just start at 5% and scale 2.5 per level.
